How set location where mysqldump file is placed?

How do I specify where the resultant “dump file” goes after I run mysqldump??

I would like it to be placed here…


/Users/user1/Documents/DEV/++MySQL_backups

I’ve been looking all over the Manual and can’t figure out how to do this?!

Sincerely,

Debbie

You’ll need to use the redirection operator “>”.

mysqldump --user=myuser --password=mypassword --host=localhost mydatabase > \www\myfolder\mydumpfile.sql
